actually graduated from kingston high school in 2004, and i went to a school with somebody named dorian garcia, who is actually a troop in afghanistan. it was a great experience to be able to run into him after eight years. i really didn't know what to expect. he really enjoyed it. he contacted me on facebook and asked me if i was going to be there because he saw a poster of harlem globetrotters. i told him i was. now this is going to pave the way for us to xeep in touch with each other a little more than one time in eight years. >> that's pretty cool. tell us finally, this is a group that's been around for more than 80 years. i remember them as a kid. i just loved you guys. how do you become a harlem globetrotter and do that? is it really hard? >> it is hard. it's been around for 87 years, and it's not easy to do. everybody sees the tricks that we do every single day, but they don't know the type of commitment and dedication we have to do in order to be a harlem globetrotter. statement we're all great basketball players. we start our tour on december 26th, which is called the write the rules
